Choice of Java framework for web management interface

Question

Java

Since this is only a web interface for a server application that is deployed on the same hardware, the most important wish is the minimum memory consumption (<=128Mb). The load will be small: up to 5 operators. You also need:
- MVC
- security
- templates
- database (not ORM)
While I'm looking towards Play, but I would like to listen to the advice of smart people. Including the advisability of using Java for this task.

Answer 1

In my opinion, in this case it is advisable not to use frameworks. Regular servlets are enough for the eyes, than a bunch of unnecessary (and often not used) code will be piled above them.
